Music review by Hildemollerknag

Dutch Band. pioneers of electronic music. Ensemble Pittoresque, the music collective from the early eighties representing the minimal-electro genre created two classic albums. In 1983 they realesed 'For This Is Past' on Clogsontronics records. In 1984 their second album 'Frequenz' came out. In the heart of The Hague, Paulus Wieland and Richard Neumöller hooked up with whiz technician Ton Willekes. Recordings were made from 1977 to 1984. To overcome a lack of dynamics Wieland and Neumöller later turned to three fellow musicians: Ed van Hoven, Marion Prinz and Biko.
